You had better luck than I did.  I made the mistake of not first taking the
old one off to get an exact measurement.  I asked for a 69 Camaro muffler and
it bolted on ok, but the outlets were the exact same diameter as the tailpipe
extensions.  Out of frustration I used a little step down converter on each
side of the muffler to mate the extensions.  I will still have to get the
correct muffler since the converters are not stock and don't look right.
Anyhow, another lesson to beware of a parts reference unless you physically
check the old part.
